the final installment of KTTC’s first VSS on ‘the nature of evidence’ _ 3/3

Hi, what’s up?

What’cha doing over here at the KTTC blog, i wonder?
Thanks for making the time.

(-:

In any case, this is a quick post re: today’s virtual seminar meeting — it was the third consecutive meeting in three weeks and marked the conclusion of our series on ‘the nature of evidence’.

Today, n equaled 5, two of whom (including me) have been a part of all three seminars, and for the other 3 today was their second time attending.

There are better summaries of what we read and said in the VSS google-doc, so i won’t say much here other than this: if you do surf over to check it out, start by zooming out (way out) and noting the four major sections of the workbook — it’s easy, it’s color-coded.

The yellow cells tell you what you’re reading,

the pink cells on the right are an evaluation of today and this first VSS,

the yellowy-orange cells at the bottom are my rendering of what were some of the conversation threads expressed today … (with apologies now for any inaccuracies — may today’s participants please feel free to edit or add; and for that matter, may any new visitor feel free to grab a bunch of empty cells, merge them, and leave your own Comment).

… and the green and blue cells comprise the ‘commentary’ re: today’s two readings.

[Cornelissen et al. (2011), Knowledge translation in the discourse of professional practice; and Ellingson (2006), Embodied knowledge: writing researchers’ bodies into qualitative health research. ]

It may not be the easiest medium to navigate, and ideas are afoot to collate this entire vss/google-doc into a more ‘readerly’ fashion, but appropriately enough, before the truth of what transpired can be constructed as such for peer review, the heart of the VSS is about being peer created.

I’m but one scribe.

We’re all participants.

As it relates to some members’ thoughts
on the nature of evidence,
